Casa
de la Luz and Location
|
| Casa
de la Luz (house of the light) is situated in the little Moorish whitewashed
village of La Garnatilla in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountains
overlooking the Costa Tropical de Granada.
While
the village is peacefully tucked away among the terraced hillsides of
olives and almonds, the town of Motril is only 4 kms away, where there
are excellent shops, bars and restaurants. Beaches are within 15 minutes
by car.
|
 |
| The
house accommodates 4 people and is built on 2 floors in traditional Andalucian
style with wooden shutters, terra cotta tiled floors and is newly furnished
and refurbished throughout. It consists of one double bedroom, one twin
bedroom, bathroom, well equipped and new kitchen and large sitting/dining
room. While many houses in the village are inaccessible by car, it is possible
to take a car to the front door of Casa de la Luz for loading/unloading.
At other times parking is in the church square, a minute´s walk away. A
car is essential. While the house is centrally located in the village, it
offers wonderful views over the sea and the surrounding hillsides. |
| From
the village you will find many hiking trails lined with wild herbs and an
abundance of flora and fauna, an ideal setting for bird watching. For the
more adventurous there are many activities nearby such as sailing, scuba
diving and wind surfing on the coast to cycling, climbing, horse riding
and hang-gliding in the hills. |
 |
| The
Sierra Nevada, Spain's highest mountain range, is a magnificent backdrop
to this partly undiscovered area of Spain. The area enjoys a microclimate,
subtropical in character, a warm and gentle 18 degrees in winter and an
average of 25 degrees in summer. |
| The
beaches and coves are unspoilt, there are golf courses in Granada (18 holes)
and Los Moriscos golf course (9 holes) just 5kms from Motril which runs
along the seafront lined with palm trees and has a good restaurant and bar.
There is also the Marina at the Port of Motril. In the winter months you
can ski in the Sierras in the morning and sunbathe on one of the numerous
beaches along the coast in the afternoon. |
 |
| This
is the old Andalucian part of Spain, complete with fiestas, whitewashed
villages, Moorish castles and the local food and wine are excellent and
cheap, unrivalled seafood, famous Serrano ham in the Alpujarras and the
rustic Costa wine is uniquely Spanish. |
| The
area is rich in history, from the Moorish Alhambra Palace in Granada (just
50 minutes by car) to the Alpujarras region. The coastal towns of Almeria,
Almunecar, Salobrena and Nerja are also well worth a visit. |
